Why Host SCUM with Gravel Host?

SCUM's metabolism, puppet AI and physics simulation are heavy on CPU and disk. Our SCUM hosting is built for the load so your prison island stays responsive as your community grows.

Custom Game Panel

Manage your SCUM dedicated server from one clean dashboard. Start, stop and restart your island, edit ServerSettings.ini, whitelist inmates, and access logs - no SSH, no command line. Built for players, not sysadmins.

Instant Setup

Your SCUM server deploys in about 60 seconds after checkout. SCUM comes pre-installed with the official dedicated server - just set your server name, password, and start playing.

Mods & Custom Maps

Drop server files, mods, and config tweaks in through FTP or our file manager. Full access to ServerSettings.ini, Game.ini, save files, and engine overrides so you can tune loot tables, puppet spawn rates, fame multipliers, and PvP rules exactly how you want.

DDoS Protection

Public SCUM islands pull in attention fast. Every Gravel Host SCUM server includes enterprise DDoS protection on every plan and region at no extra cost - your sessions stay online even under attack.

3+ Years of Backups

We store your SCUM server data for over three years. Take a break, come back later, and your base, gear, and character progress are right where you left them. Daily automatic backups let you roll back any time.

Low-Latency Locations

SCUM's gunplay and physics-driven combat needs low ping to feel right. Pick from server locations across North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia and choose the region closest to your squad for the smoothest experience.

THE BEST SCUM SERVER HOSTING FOR SQUADS & COMMUNITIES

YOUR OWN SCUM DEDICATED SERVER - LIVE IN UNDER 2 MINUTES

SCUM is an early access open-world survival game where you're a supermax prisoner picked up by entertainment giant TEC01 to star in their television sensation - inmates fight for survival and fame against the living, the dead, and other players, chasing the support of viewers, producers, and sponsors. Deep character customization plus survival, biology, and physics mechanics like metabolism, inertia, wetness, and awareness put real load on a server. Your life sentence is about to become your 15 minutes of fame, and we run SCUM hosting on high-clock CPUs with NVMe storage so puppet AI, gunplay, and base raid activity stay responsive as your island scales. Whether you're running a private squad with friends or a busy public PvE/PvP server, Gravel Host delivers cheap SCUM server hosting without cutting corners on performance.
